My five year old as a toothache
My son has a toothache
I just do not know what to do. My son was complaing that he had a toothache. So I took him to see his dentist that wants to do two root canals. Not having dental insurance I started to shop out cost. For the two root cancal since he has to be under a general anesthesia I am getting prices ranging from 8000 – 10000. This is way to costly for me. I do not want my son to be in pain but I just do not have that kind of money either. Any advise on what I can do?

That seem very high for two root canals even on a child. I would suggest getting dental insurance or a even a dental discount plan to help off set your dental cost.
Also I would advise getting a second opinion and continue to shop out your cost.
Here is a web site for your review. It had both dental insurance and discount plans depending on the state that you live in I hope it helps
